The media frenzy around it might just be because it's the hot new thing, but this happens to every company that gets taken over by MBAs. The cost and corner cutting, sidelining of competent managers for sycophants, prioritizing short term line go up over long term quality and reputation.
Yep, this sort of thing happened when the New Palestine train derailment happened. For a month or so after it happened all you heard about was how another train derailed even though it's (unfortunately) very common in the US and statistically multiple of them happen every single day. It's not like trains just started derailing out of nowhere, it was always happening, it's just that the media found something new that gets them clicks and keeps rolling with it.
